Abstract
A method based on a time dependent coordinate transformation has been applied to solve Burgers' equation. The numerical solution has been compared to the analytical solution of Lighthill [1]. The numerical results agree completely with the analytical ones. They have been obtained with very large time steps because a fast implicit non-iterative algorithm has been employed for the time discretization. The number of grid points in the space discretization is very low because the coordinate transformation gives a steady shock in the “new” coordinate.
